What else can I help you with?
Is sodium and chlorine metals or non metals?
Sodium, copper and aluminum are all metals. Chlorine is not a metal.
Is sodium chloride two metals two nonmetals a metal and a nonmetal or a nonmetal and a noble gas?
Sodium chloride contains the metal sodium and the non metal chlorine.
Chlorine gas reacts with soduim metal to produce sodium chloride?
When chlorine gas reacts with sodium metal, a chemical reaction occurs where the sodium metal loses an electron to become a sodium ion, and the chlorine gas gains an electron to become a chloride ion. The resulting compound formed is sodium chloride, which is commonly known as table salt.
Why does a piece of sodium metal cut with a knife soon go dull?
When sodium metal is exposed to air, it reacts with oxygen to form sodium oxide. This sodium oxide layer covers the surface of the metal, giving it a dull appearance. As the metal reacts further with moisture in the air, it forms sodium hydroxide, which can also contribute to the dullness of the metal.
Does sodium form a covalent transferring or ionic transferring or ionic sharing bond with chlorine?
Covalent bonds are between non-metals only. Ions in covalent bonds share electrons. Ionic bonds are between a non-metal and a metal and the ions transfer electrons. Sodium (Na) is a metal and chlorine (Cl) is a non-metal. Therefore, sodium and chlorine form an ionic bond, in which ions transfer electrons.
What metal and non-metal makes sodium chloride?
Sodium and Chlorine. Sodium is a metal and chlorine is a halide gas.
What is the non metal in table salt?
Table salt is sodium chloride, NaCl; the metal is sodium.
Is sodium and chlorine metals or non metals?
Sodium, copper and aluminum are all metals. Chlorine is not a metal.
Where are the metal that react the most on the periodic table?
Sodium reacts the most on the periodic table.It is alkali metal with atomic number 11.It forms sodium chlorine with cl.
Can sodium and chlorine form a molecule?
Yes, it is what we call table salt. Actually it forms an ionic compund that does not contain discrete molecules but a lattice of Na+ and Cl-. At very high temperatures gas phase sodium chloride forms molecules
Is sodium chloride two metals two nonmetals a metal and a nonmetal or a nonmetal and a noble gas?
Sodium chloride contains the metal sodium and the non metal chlorine.
What is the gas that comines with metal and form table salt?
Chlorine. Note that this forms table salt only when it combines with the particular metal sodium.
Which two elements will react to form a salt with properties most similar to sodium chloride?
Sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) will react to form a salt with properties most similar to sodium chloride. Sodium chloride is a common salt that forms when sodium metal reacts with chlorine gas.
Is the compound sodium chloride the same as the element sodium or the element chlorine?
A compound, by definition is made up of more than one element. Sodium chloride (NaCl) is vastly different from both elemental sodium (which is a metal which dissolves when exposed to water) and chlorine (which is a gas that can kill you if you inhale enough of it). When you react both Sodium and Chlorine however.
Describe how a sodium atom forms a bond with a chlorine atom?
The bonding mechanism between sodium and chlorine atom occurs through harpoon mechanism
Is sodium a nonmetal or a metal?
Sodium is a metal.
Does sodium and chlorine have the same or different reactivities?
Sodium and chlorine have different reactivities. Sodium is a highly reactive metal that readily forms compounds with other elements, while chlorine is a highly reactive nonmetal that easily reacts with other elements to form compounds like sodium chloride (table salt).
